It's that cold up that way? WOW. We've got 57 degrees here, with a forecast of thunderstorms for tonight. The weather map on TV showed a cold front up that way, but they said it was actually receding until Wednesday, then look out! I wouldn't be surprised if you got warmer than 31 today.

Very extensive layout - all in Legos..... Many "mini-scenes." I've got a couple of other pictures of it. There were several "guest" layouts at the museum, all excellent. Come to think of it - I'm not sure I saw them all... We got there a little later than planned, and the 'outside' stuff closed at 4:30. Still, it was nice to visit again.

I'm going to be doing lots of playing with the weather over the next few days. Today there is fog and a high of 35 degrees. Tonight, rain and thunderstorms with temps rising to near 50 by morning. Tuesday, partly cloudy and a high in the mid 60s. Wednesday cloudy with furries and a high of 30 and Thursday a high in the mid 20s. Weather is always such fun in Nebraska!

Brian - No tornadoes any time soon, but when they do happen, I can try my hardest to keep them away from buildings and people. Probably won't do a lot of good, but it's worth a try. And Mudchicken, I never put the weather machine back together right. I just mix and match the parts so the weather is as crazy as I can make it!
Y6bs evergreen in my mind
Good morning, folks. Right now it's raining here in Sioux Falls, and we have a temperature of 37 degrees.........at least it's above freezing. I'm getting ready for another day of bell ringing for the Salvation Army, and Hopefully I will not slip and slide all over the place while walking to work this morning. Yesterday morning we had a thin layer of ice covering everything out there, and our local police department responded to 47 auto accidents because of it.
Yesterday my supervisor with the Salvation Army told me that I had taken in fourteen-hundred dollars in donations at my kettle on Saturday, 11/25, and I feel pretty good about that. I like to think that I am helping to make a difference in the lives of a lot of people who are a lot less fortunate than I am.
I hope the rest of the forum members out there will have a good day!

Busy day at the higher learning institution, eh?
It's a very wet morning around here, rained all night and more is on the way. I currently show 55 degrees on the local temp- tomorrow the bottom falls out of it.
Well, let's see now. Maybe we can coax Mookie to stop
work, and rest a bit, with today's menu:
beef stew, cornbread, and chocolate cake.

A good, frosty cold morning to everyone out there! CW is not here yet, so I've gotten the coffee started and I've mixed a fresh batch of orange juice, and the hot chocolate is ready.
It's 13 degrees in Sioux Falls, and with the wind blowing out of the NW at 17 miles per hour, it actually feels like 3 below 0. I'll be working another shift as a bell ringer for the Salvation Army today and I am assembling some extra cold-weather gear. The temperature here will max out at about 16 degrees this afternoon. The air here is too dry for any snow to develop.
C-O-F-F-E-E and a new puter!
My paws hurt from so much typing! Some one in higher authority planned a bowl game, a big 12 game, 3 mail campaigns (about 40-50K each) and numerous ways to get at me on line all at the same time. What is wrong with doing some of this in July?
Anyway - have a couple of comments from North Platte. Our garage still smells like cow manure; we saw an ES44 that some one had written (in the dirt) FORD on the fuel tank - my own private joke - An engine marked Cotton Belt - a thrill; UP #6344 in all gray with a red stripe; and lots and lots of SP engines. Watched them hump lots of cars and even a couple of engines that went "whee" down those same tracks.....
Stopped at Cabelas in Sidney on Black Friday - (I tried to tell him!) They had the whole western part of NE stuffed in that one little building. We made a lot of new intimate friends just trying to get from one aisle to another.
Weather was super! Had a Starbucks on the motel property that looked like a roundabout. They had window service as well as inside service - and they too had most of western NE in there.
Found out where the deer go during hunting season - they mingle with the cattle! Smart deer! Had to come back to work to find a possum in the parking lot, however! Saw 3 Archimedes Screws - working, too. Fascinating.
I was a little disappointed in the fact that the railroads want to upgrade their image with the population, but they offer little in places that people could sit and watch the railroad at work. We sat in a parking lot on one afternoon to watch the extensive traffic in and out of Bailey yard. We went to the visitors center which was a joke. Either you stand up on a platform and look through the trees or sit in your car if it is really cold and/or windy and look at the trees. Why put up an observation point and then plant trees all around it so you can't see anything from the ground? NP and UP are you listening?
We saw better railroad traffic from highway 30 driving in and out of the city.
But all-in-all if you want to see a lot of trains and don't mind that they are all UP - visit North Platte - or surrounding areas on Highway 30. Just don't get to gawking and run off the road.
Now for some much needed hammock time!
